Leave the bait alone. Anything that isn't a +10000 spin top 5 it at Pop radio is a "flop" and is used to start arguments. But I do think the argument is legitimate here, instead of say, with Taylor Swift. This peaked at #78 on the Hot 100. That is terrible, no matter how you look at it.

Damn that’s really not a good sign :( Can’t believe a phoned in soundtrack single from only 1.5 years prior outpeaked this.

Meh. Her album sales and touring numbers are still great and this was a top five hit on her core format. She's fine.

I knew Brazil guy was waiting in the wings... So expected. Bye. The problem was, u didnt wait...her career is over on Pop when it obvious, it aint obvious yet.

Anyway, Oh no, what will she ever do. Lady has had a few flops and still riding high; she will be fine. :) It was definitely the single, not her or her age.

Ps - bringing up a dead thread to post nothing new but to say I was right? Yeah, no.

Had she performed this at the Grammys instead of an album track it probably woudlve made it to the top half off of the hot 100. She’s in the album game first now, with the singles game second

Considering she is an aging female singer and how the industry seems to be completely against singers like that, I would consider #13 on the Hot 100 and #10 on pop great. Although I loved What About Us, I didn’t think it would be a hit and even now, I can’t think of another artist outside of maybe Adele who could sing it and make it into a hit

Most big pop stars rn?

This single bombed so hard the label didn't even bother with the third single. Even Europe and Australia are bypassing Whatever You Want and that sorry excuse of a tour video.
She's lucky she can tour but her golden pop phase ended with What About Us which still managed to do ok in the US, big global hit. If Sony hadn't given up on the era, Where We Go would be the choice with a proper video and streaming payola but they probably sold enough hard copies to pay Channing Tatum and call it a day.
Biggest waste of the era was 2 great videos after the Video Vanguard and then nothing. Mom Pink is just super boring. Looking forward to the new You+Me record only.

She's doing fine This is normal for most wrists at her point in their career They still however are big names in the music industry
Like Britney, she hadn't had a major hot since Scream & Shout, but the GP loves her and she's still a big name
I really did hope this would do much better, could have helped a lot if she performed this at the Grammus
But at the end of the day the music video and her happiness matters more to me Cause she delivered a fantastic visual and seems genuienly happy where she is at in her career It's what she deserves to be, this still us a #1 in my heart

But yeah... P!nk is doing fine. Shes still a big name. People still love her. It's a shame how much shes been lesser appreciate lately though. I still consider her one of the strongest vocalists in the music industry.

If p!nk came with a banger tomorrow, I HIGHLY doubt CHR would refuse its success. Why are some so dramatic....
Mom P!nk is boring? But You+Me isnt...the irony.

"Beautiful Trauma" outperformed my expectations by a long shot. So did "What About Us" honestly.
And to those criticizing "Mom Pink" - do we not remember that "Perfect" and "Try" were two of the biggest hits of her career?

Let’s keep in mind in 2003 god is a dj was a second single, didn’t make the hot 100, and charted on pop for 8 weeks only reaching number 22.
I think she ended up okay

It's not necessary to bump a thread when the discussion about its Pop radio performance is done, so this thread is locked.
